Just installed JLT CAI, Accufab 75mm Throttle Body and Plenum
So the good first...
- The car's throttle feels a lot better, the car accelerates a lot smoother
- The stang seems noticeably faster, when I first drove around after the install the car felt pretty noticeably quicker. The car seemed to accelerate much quicker...(But then again this could have been my imagination). I haven't really taken in it to high speeds yet (aka on the highway), but the most gain is supposedly suppose to occur at higher rpms.
- The cars exhaust sounds substanitally louder, and a the exhaust tone is a little bit different.
- The intake makes a pretty sweet sucktion noise when I stepping on the gas
The bad....
- A bit pricey for all three items
- Kind of a pain to install the intake, aka connecting the mass air flow sensor to the mass air flow adapter
Overall...
Pretty pleased; I would purchase the same parts if i had to do it over again
And to the real reason behind this post...
After getting everything installed my car threw a check engine light. Has this happened to anyone after a similar install or anyone have any thoughts as to what it might be? I've tried disconecting the battery several times but the light keeps on returning and I've checked all the connection visible to the me in the engine bay and they all seem pretty much fine (haven;t rechecked the ...
I'm thinking it might be:
-When i reinstalled the throttle body position sensor I may have accidentally moved the throttle body positin slightly...(i may not have, not really sure if i did)
-I did notice that the install instruction said something about a separate IAF Sensor, but i have a 2003 gt, so i'm pretty sure that's not the case for me.
